PITA project

I am building 8 pkm's for a customer, these things are extremly time consuming and a real pita to do. Todays project was to cut out the keyhole slot s in the butt plates for the recoil spring retainer. I made a fixture from some scrap lexan I had and am cutting them out in the cnc engraver. it is a slow process, but since it does it all by it's self I can be working on another part of the build while it is working.

took 4 of them to the range today for a good flogging, all passed the pirate test, that's 5 down 3 to go. I am going to tear them down tomorrow do the engraving on the receivers, rivet on the trigger guards and send them out to be painted. I can't wait to see the end of these things!

Pirate,
Love the rpd you built for me a while back. There's a Hungarian pkm and vltor receiver on the boards for $4000 without semi parts. What would it cost to finish off?

I have an agreement with marco mar that I will not do any pkm builds unless they go through him. at the moment there are no semi parts available, I used up his inventory doing these 8 guns. so unlesss he wants to get parts made it is the end of semi builds. personally this project was a nightmare for me and I really am not looking to do any more of these.
